I've been trying to make you love me
But everything I try
Just takes you further from me
You don't love me, no, no

So you treat me cruel
But no matter how you hurt me
I'll always be a fool
If you don't want me forever

If you don't need me forever
And if you don't love me forever
Take me for a little while
I've got to make you love me
For a little while

I've just got to make you want me
I've got to stop it

There should be a law
And no matter how you put me down
I love you more, I feel so helpless
And it ain't funny

'Cause deep down inside I know
You're never gonna love me
If you don't want me forever
If you don't need me forever
